Honduras's de facto rulers have said they had resolved a disagreement with the Organization of American States (OAS) over a visit to the Central American country to discuss its political crisis.
The government running Honduras since a coup in June had told OAS chief Jose Miguel Insulza to stay away because of his support for ousted President Manuel Zelaya.
But it later reversed course and said Mr Insulza could come on a mission with Latin American foreign ministers in the coming weeks.
"The secretary general will participate as an observer," the foreign ministry said in a statement.
During a visit to Honduras days after soldiers forced Mr Zelaya out of the country on June 28th, Mr Insulza called for the president to be reinstated and did not meet directly with de facto leader Roberto Micheletti.
Honduras's de facto government had accused Mr Insulza of "lacking objectivity, impartiality and professionalism."
The Washington-based OAS, the Western Hemisphere's top diplomatic body, suspended Honduras over the coup, the first suspension of a member state since Cuba in 1962.
Mr Insulza was planning to travel to Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras, on Tuesday.
Honduras is expected to be discussed at US President Barack Obama's first "three amigos" summit with the leaders of Mexico and Canada on Monday in Mexico.
Mr Obama has canceled $16.5 million in military aid to Honduras and has condemned Mr Zelaya's removal, as have Latin American governments and the European Union.
But the administration headed by Mr Micheletti, the former head of Congress, appears to be digging in.
