His assistant manager Steve Holland has also agreed a new deal through to 2022.
The announcement came just before Southgate announced six uncapped players in the England squad for the Nations League games against Croatia and Spain in October.
After initially taking over as caretaker manager following the departure of Sam Allardyce in September 2016, former Aston Villa and Middlesbrough centre-back Southgate signed a four-year deal as permanent England boss in November of that year.
