According to a draft peace pact, the troops would leave within 18 months of the agreement being signed.
While no joint statement has been issued, US special peace envoy Zalmay Khalilzad tweeted the talks had made "significant progress".
A trip to Afghanistan to meet government officials was also being planned, he added.
