Joshua will make his comeback with a bout against Albanian heavyweight Kristian Prenga in Riyadh on 25 July before facing his British rival.
Eddie Hearn, Joshua's promoter, posted on social media: "Signed, sealed and delivered! AJ vs Fury is on!"
He described it as "the biggest piece of business we've ever done but more importantly the one we've always wanted".
"Biggest year of AJ's career coming up, the comeback is on," the promoter wrote.
Hearn, who did not confirm the date or location for the bout, has previously told Sky Sports that November was the date they were targeting.
Hopes will be high for another British stadium fight, with the contest being shown on Netflix.
Ring Magazine said the fight was a "done deal" and would take place in "Q4, 2026" in a social media post on Monday.
Joshua, 36, and Fury, 37, are two of the biggest names in British boxing and, after a decade of circling each other amid aborted attempts to agree a showdown while still in their prime, they will collide in a contest Fury has called "The Battle of Britain".
Fury first became a heavyweight world champion when he upset Wladimir Klitschko in 2015.
Joshua turned professional after winning Olympic gold at London 2012 and rocketed through the professional ranks, but by the time he picked up his first world title belt in 2016, Fury had stepped away from the sport.
Later, after Fury returned to the ring and became WBC world champion, the pair were close to agreeing to fight for the undisputed world heavyweight championship as Joshua held the unified IBF, WBO and WBA championships.

That proposed contest fell through, and Fury fought Deontay Wilder for a third time, while Joshua lost to Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk, who later beat Fury.
Fury, who retired again at the start of last year, returned to the sport with victory over Arslanbek Makhmudov in London earlier this month.
Joshua has been waiting for the all-clear to resume full training after being injured in a road accident in Nigeria in which two of his close friends and members of his team lost their lives.
The two-time world champion had been on holiday following his knockout victory over US YouTuber turned-boxer Jake Paul in Miami on 19 December.
He is now in camp working with his former rival Usyk, who has backed AJ to beat Fury, Sky Sports said.

She performed in the 1960s group, best known for hits including Be My Baby, Walking In The Rain, Baby, I Love You and (The Best Part of) Breakin' Up, alongside her cousins Ronnie Spector and Estelle Bennett.
The band's official Instagram page shared the news of her death, calling her "a light" to those who knew her.
The post, which showed Talley Ross sitting in front of a portrait of the band, said: "It is with heavy hearts that we share the news of Nedra Talley Ross' passing. She was a light to those who knew and loved her.
"As a founding member of The Ronettes, along with her beloved cousins Ronnie and Estelle, Nedra's voice, style and spirit helped define a sound that would change music.
"Her contribution to the group's story and their defining influence will live forever.
"Rest peacefully dear Nedra. Thanks for the magic."
Talley Ross' daughter, Nedra K Ross, also shared the news of her mother's death on Facebook.
She wrote: "At approximately 8:30 this morning our mother Nedra Talley Ross went home to be with the Lord.
"She was safe in her own bed at home with her family close, knowing she was loved. Thank you Lord. There will be a Celebration of Life in the future and I will post information when plans have been confirmed."
The group, which formed in 1957, were known for their signature beehive hair and rocketed to fame due to their collaboration with music producer Phil Spector.
The only released one studio album - Presenting the Fabulous Ronettes Featuring Veronica (1964) - but their music has stood the test of time.
The Ronettes were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007.
CCTV footage shows the gang breaking into the sites and directing tipper trucks loaded with rubbish while attempting to hide their faces.
Patrick Doherty was jailed for 28 months and Martin Ward was jailed for 18 months on Friday.
Michael Ward, also known as Martin McCann, and Simon O'Donnell both received 14-month prison sentences suspended for two years.
The men were found guilty at Kingston-upon-Thames Crown Court of conspiracy to illegally dump controlled waste following a pattern of offending over a year.
The Environment Agency had investigated the men, uncovering a criminal operation which involved repeatedly dumping rubbish, such as tyres and waste from house clearances and construction, at different sites over a year.
As part of its investigation, the agency obtained CCTV footage showing the men taking control of sites and directing tipper trucks.
It also shows them interfering with CCTV cameras, hiding their own faces, and removing or covering vehicle registration plates.
The agency said the landowner of one site, at Imperial Way in Croydon, was left with a clean-up bill of £300,000 after security cameras were smashed and a company representative was threatened and refused entry.
At Station Road in the Colliers Wood area of Wimbledon, the gang was said to have "issued a chilling ultimatum" to a site worker, telling them to pay £5,000 or they would "fill this unit to the brim".
The money was not paid and waste was piled five feet high, costing £15,000 to clear.
Despite their attempts to conceal their identities, the Environment Agency said its investigators were able to gather enough evidence against them through nearby cameras, council CCTV and police body-worn footage.
Waste crime costs the UK over £1bn each year, harms communities and undermines legitimate businesses, the Environment Agency said.

Environment Secretary Emma Reynolds said: "The actions of these shameless waste criminals are unacceptable and have rightly been punished.
"My message is simple - break the law by dumping waste and we will come after you.
"This government is stepping up action, through our waste crime action plan, with new powers and more funding for the authorities and tougher punishments for criminals."
Under the government's plans to tackle waste crime, the Environment Agency says it will increase its enforcement and intervene earlier, backed by an additional £45m from the government over the next three years.
John Cotton said there has been a breakthrough in the dispute over jobs and pay.
He said: "After months of frustration and delay, for the first time in over 12 months, a negotiated settlement to end the bin strike is now within sight.
"This has been a challenging and complex process, but after months of hard work, on the principles and parameters of a deal, I believe a new, improved offer can be made and terms can be put in place that addresses the ballpark issues discussed at Acas, that Unite members can agree in order to end the strike once and for all.
"A deal that would be good for the workforce, represent good value for money and would not repeat the mistakes of the past and risk creating new structural equal pay liabilities."
Unite has said the council leader's statement is "a vindication of the bin workers' struggle for a decent deal following their job evaluation regrading".
Its general secretary Sharon Graham added: "As I have said on many occasions, the workers come first and we will always do everything in our power to ensure that our members are treated with dignity and respect."
Unite said the full details of the deal will remain confidential ahead of the detailed offer from the council, which will then have to be voted on by the bin workers.
The breakthrough comes just over a week before the local council elections.
Members of Unite went on an all-out strike in March last year in a row over pay, which the union claims will leave some members of staff £8,000 worse off, a figure the council has always disputed.
More than 350 workers began a series of walkouts in January 2025 and decided to escalate into indefinite strike action three months later, citing fear over further attacks on their jobs, pay and conditions.

Birmingham City Council declared a major incident a month into the strike, when around 17,000 tonnes of waste had been left on the streets.
It said at the time that the "regrettable" move was being taken in response to public health concerns, as picket lines were blocking depots and preventing waste vehicles from collecting rubbish.
The country's first minister and her deputy stood alongside police chiefs to strongly condemn the attack, which saw an explosive device placed in the boot of a delivery driver's vehicle.
The man was then ordered to drive to Dunmurry police station, southwest of Belfast city centre.
Officers found the car abandoned and managed to evacuate residents of nearby homes, including two babies, before the device exploded.
Speaking at Stormont on Monday morning, Ms O'Neill said: "I think it's with real relief that we're standing here today and no one was seriously killed or injured. But that does not take away for a second from the seriousness of what occurred on Saturday evening.
"To all those that are responsible for what happened on Saturday evening, I say get off the backs of communities.
"We will not accept being dragged backwards. Those responsible for this selfish act have nothing to offer our society."
Emma Little-Pengelly, deputy first minister of Northern Ireland, added that she was "absolutely appalled" by the attack.
"It is vitally important that we send a very clear message this morning that we stand shoulder to shoulder and clear and unequivocal condemnation of this attack," she said, saying the perpetrators "want to drag us back to the past".
"We do have a clear message to those that are behind these attacks: Go away, you are not wanted," Ms Little-Pengelly continued.
"This type of violence, this type of terrorism, has absolutely no part to play in the Northern Ireland of today or the Northern Ireland of tomorrow."
An attempted murder investigation led by Northern Ireland's Terrorism Investigation Unit is under way.

Chief Constable Jon Boutcher has called for anyone with information on the "mindless thugs" behind the incident to come forward.
"I will appeal [to] anybody with any information about the people responsible to please, please, please contact us before these people actually harm or kill somebody," he said.
The attack comes just weeks after a delivery driver was forced at gunpoint to take an explosive device to a police station in County Armagh.
