Welcoming the move Glasgow Warriors head coach Sean Lineen said: "Our growing number of supporters will be impressed with Lome.
"We are going to have exceptional pace on the wings next season and there will be great competition for places out wide.
"He came over for a three week period during the summer to show how keen he was before joining the Samoan Rugby World Cup squad.
"He's a good lad and a good leader. I'm positive he's going to entertain the crowd with his exciting brand of rugby."
Fa'atau will join his fellow Manu Samoa internationalists Justin Va'a and Opeta Palepoi at the Warriors.
He said: "I'm really looking forward to the new challenge of playing rugby in Europe and in the Heineken Cup for Glasgow. Justin Va'a and Opeta Palepoi, my Samoan team mates, both talked very positively about playing and living in Scotland.
"When I visited last month I was impressed by Sean Lineen's ambition and vision for Glasgow and am really looking forward to arriving after the World Cup and making a big contribution to Glasgow's season."
The Somoan star will hope to see Heineken Cup action against Warriors' Pool 4 opponents Biarritz Olympique, Saracens and Viadana with the Glasgow side kicking off away to Saracens on Sunday, 11 November.
The wing, who was born in New Zealand, moved to the Chiefs in 2004 before again returning to the Hurricanes and made his international debut for Samoa in 2002 and appeared in all but one of Samoa's Rugby World Cup matches in 2003.
