The Dutchman's initial contract was due to expire at the end of the 2024/25 season.
Following the most recent campaign, in which the side finish eighth on the Premier League table, marking their worst-ever EPL finish, speculation around his future began to emerge.
After United's FA Cup victory over Manchester City and an internal review of his performance, however, it was reported that the Red Devils' hierarchy decided to keep the former Ajax Amsterdam manager in his position.
United sporting director Dan Ashworth has since praised the 54-year-old's ability to win trophies.
"With two trophies in the past two seasons, Erik has reinforced his record as one of the most consistently successful coaches in European football," he said, per the club's official website.
"While the club's review of last season highlighted areas for improvement, it also reached a clear conclusion that Erik was the best partner for us to work with in driving up standards and outcomes.
"With our strengthened football leadership team now in place, we are looking forward to working hand-in-hand with Erik to achieve our shared ambitions for this football club."
Ten Hag, meanwhile, admitted that despite winning the FA Cup this year and the Carabao Cup last season, there is much work to be done.
"I am very pleased to have reached agreement with the club to continue working together. Looking back at the past two years, we can reflect with pride on two trophies and many examples of progression from where we were when I joined," the Dutch tactician said.
"However, we must also be clear that there is still lots of hard work ahead to reach the levels expected of Manchester United, which means challenging for English and European titles.
"In my discussions with the club, we have found complete unity in our vision for reaching those goals, and we are all strongly committed to making that journey together."
