Propper also joins the likes of Markus Suttne, Pascal Gross, Mathias Normann and Izzy Brown as new signings at the south coast side this summer.
'Davy is a player with great experience of the Eredivisie with Vitesse Arnhem and PSV Eindhoven,' said manager Chris Hughton.
'There is no doubting his pedigree: Davy has played a number of matches in the Champions League for PSV, as well as international football for Holland.
'He's a strong competitor as a central midfielder and will complement our existing midfield players, and he is also a really good age at 25; we are absolutely delighted to welcome him to the club.'
Propper joined PSV from Vitesse Arnhem in 2015, and featured in the team that won the 2015-16 Eredivisie title.
