The highly anticipated Biden-Xi meeting, the first since they met in Indonesia last year, comes amid geopolitical tensions over the Israeli war on Gaza and the ongoing Ukraine-Russia war.
China and the United States have differed on the two wars, with Beijing speaking out against the civilian toll in Gaza and refusing to side with the US against Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The militarization of the South China Sea, the issue of Taiwan and trade disagreements between the world's two largest economies will be part of the agenda along with US concerns about Chinese surveillance and fentanyl smuggling.
