A Hamas official was quoted as saying Hamas was "answering an Egyptian invitation for a discussion."
The report did not say what exactly would be discussed, or whether the Hamas delegation would come from the Gaza Strip or from the Islamist group's offices in Damascus.
Hamas officials could not immediately be reached to confirm or deny the report.
The group has said it would be open to a ceasefire with Israel if the Jewish state would lift its blockade on Gaza and open the crossings into the densely populated, impoverished coastal strip.
