Sancho's move was all-but confirmed after the winger liked a post on social media revealing a deal was in place for him to join Dortmund on Wednesday.
United released a brief statement which included an image with the caption 'Good Luck, Jadon Sancho'.
The Red Devils concluded: "The England international of 23 caps leaves with our best wishes for the remainder of this season."
Sancho said: "When I came into the dressing room today, it felt like 'coming home'. I know the club inside and out, I've always been very close with the fans here, and I've never lost contact with those in charge.
“I can’t wait to see my teammates again, go out on the pitch, play football with a smile on my face, prepare goals, score goals and help qualify for the Champions League."
Sancho spent four brilliant seasons at Dortmund where he established himself as one of the brightest talents in world football.
He won the DFB-Pokal in the 2020/21 season, alongside Erling Haaland, and went on to score 50 goals in 137 appearances for the club.
Sancho was also twice named in the Bundesliga team of the season while at the club.

He joined United in 2021 for a fee in the region of £73million, but his move to Old Trafford has not been a successful one.
The winger struggled to establish himself in the first team and suffered a fallout with manager Erik ten Hag that saw him banished from the squad.
He has played just three times this season and will finally get his chance to return to action in Germany.
talkSPORT understands that Dortmund will pay more than £3m, inclusive of wages, and that will rise depending on appearances and Champions League qualification.
