A White House official says Joshua Holt arrived on Saturday evening at Washington Dulles International Airport. The official isn't authorised to speak about the matter by name.
Venezuelan officials released Holt after high-level talks between President Nicolas Maduro and US lawmakers. Holt and his wife were jailed for nearly two years on weapons charges that US officials consider bogus.
The release of Holt and his wife and their departure for Washington came one day after Republican Senator Bob Corker of Tennessee held a surprise meeting in Caracas with Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.
