The 46-year-old will play millionairess Amanda Wylde in the Yorkshire-based soap alongside screen husband Maxwell Caulfield.
She said she is happy to be returning to Britian for the role, telling the Daily Express: "It's perfect for me as it means that I can stay in the UK, which I really want to do.
"I am quite excited because they're writing this part for me, and I pretty much take over the village and cause a lot of trouble."
Donohoe was last seen on British screens in Bad Girls. She and Caulfield will first appear on Emmerdale on January 15.
