The England international passed a medical at Carrington on Tuesday before signing a five-year deal at Old Trafford worth £250,000-a-week.
Mount becomes United’s first major signing of the summer as boss Erik ten Hag begin his squad restructure ahead of the new season.
The 24-year-old leaves Chelsea after signing for the club aged six and posted a video to bid farewell to the club and its fans.
He said: "Hi Chelsea fans. Given the speculation over the last six months, this may not come as a surprise to you but it doesn't make it any easier to tell you that I've made a decision to leave Chelsea.”

"I wanted to tell you directly how grateful I've been for all of your support over the last 18 years.
"I know some of you won't be happy with my decision, but it's what is right for me at this moment in my career.”
Chelsea stars such as Kepa Arrizabalaga, Armando Broja, Marc Cucarella and Thiago Silva were quick to show their gratitude to Mount but it was the response of Kai Havertz that gained the most attention.
The German forward who recently swapped Chelsea for Arsenal in a £65m deal, replied to Mount’s video with four crying emojis - but fans were not buying into his sentiment.
