Areola joins the Cottagers after spending last season on loan with Real Madrid, where he made nine total appearances while serving as the back-up to Thibaut Courtois.
“I am very happy everything is done. [Manager] Scott Parker called me and I had a good feeling. He said he really wanted me," Areola told Fulham's official website.
“Fulham is a historic club in London and I have heard a lot about the stadium. I hope this season will be a good one for us. I want to bring my energy and do everything for this team to keep us where we belong to be.”
Areola came up through PSG's academy system before making his senior debut for the club in the 2012-13 season. He would subsequently spend time on loan with Lens, Bastia and Villarreal.
After winning promotion to the Premier League via the Championship play-offs last season, Fulham kick off their campaign on Saturday when they host Arsenal at Craven Cottage.
