The former Corinthians midfielder, 24, completed his medical on Friday and will join the North London club for pre-season training next week.
"I am very happy and excited to have joined Spurs. It's a huge pleasure for my career to be at a club as big as Tottenham,” he told his new club’s official website.
Paulinho has made a total of 86 league appearances in Brazilian football, scoring 20 goals and helping former club Corinthians to the Brazilian Serie A league championship in 2011.
He also won the Copa Libertadores and the FIFA Club World Cup last season and capped it off by helping Brazil to win the Confederations Cup last month.
