Syrian officials say Khatami is expected to visit President Bashar al-Assad for talks on bilateral, international, and regional relations before returning to Tehran on 8 October.
President al-Assad visited Tehran in July for a two-day state visit, when he and Khatami jointly called for the departure of U.S. troops from Iraq.
Iran and Syria have boosted their relations since the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq. Both have been accused by U.S. officials of meddling in the affairs of their common neighbor.
