The Scotland captain will depart Anfield when his contract expires at the end of a difficult 2025/26 campaign in which he slipped behind Milos Kerkez in the left-back pecking order under Arne Slot.
Robertson announced he would be leaving the club in April, bringing to an end an illustrious spell on Merseyside.
Spurs were close to completing a deal for Robertson in January, but that move fell through after Liverpool were unable to recall Kostas Tsimikas from his loan at Roma.
However, the north London club have returned to the deal after they avoided relegation from the Premier League on the last day of the season.
"Andy is someone I've admired for a number of years and he will bring outstanding technical qualities, experience, leadership and mentality to our team," said Spurs head coach Roberto De Zerbi.
"He is a proven winner at the highest level over a long period and is someone who can be a big player for us, both on and off the pitch.
"I can't wait to start working with him and seeing the positive impact he will have on everyone around him."
"His quality, character and leadership have been evident throughout a career in which he has regularly competed for - and won - major honours," said Spurs sporting director Johan Lange.
"Andy's professionalism and commitment will also be invaluable to the development of our squad, and he shares our ambition and determination to bring success back to the club."
Robertson made 24 Premier League appearances for the Reds in his final season, only 11 of which were starts.
The 32-year-old departs Liverpool with two Premier League titles and one UEFA Champions League crown to his name, as well as winning the FA Cup, two EFL Cups and the FIFA Club World Cup.

Robertson became a key player for Jurgen Klopp's all-conquering Liverpool side after joining from Hull City in 2017.
"I’ll always look back on amazing memories at this football club, I’ve put my heart and soul into the club for nine years and I’ve not got many regrets," he told Liverpool's official website last month.
”I’ve grown as a man and as a person. This club will always mean the world to me, the fans will mean the world to me. It has been a hell of a journey.”
Robertson will skipper Scotland to their first World Cup in 28 years when The Tartan Army take on Haiti, Morocco and Brazil in Group C in North America this summer.
He has been capped 93 times after making his international debut in 2014 as a teenager at Dundee United.
