Pakistan and Afghanistan failed to reach an agreement on border management in talks on Monday, officials said, after days of clashes at the border last week left four dead and thousands stranded.
Fighting broke out when Pakistan started building a barrier at the crossing to stop militants crossing over from Afghanistan.
That plan angered Afghanistan, which rejects the colonial-era Durand Line border drawn up in 1893.
The two countries agreed on a cease-fire on Thursday, and it was decided that an Afghan delegation led by deputy foreign minister Hekmat Khalil Karzai would visit Pakistan for talks on Monday.
