The Frenchman will wear the number 18 shirt for the Blues this season vacated by Romelu Lukaku, who joined Everton earlier this summer.
The 27-year-old spent his last season on loan at Newcastle United, scoring 14 goals in 26 appearances for the Magpies.
Remy becomes the third centre-forward to join the west London club this summer following the arrival of Diego Costa and Didier Drogba.
