Cohen, 33, is under contract through June 2027 with a club option for the 2027-28 campaign.
He spent the past two seasons with Atlanta United, making eight appearances across all competitions.
"The goalkeeper position at the Chicago Fire has been a source of pride and stability for many years, and we are looking forward to welcoming Josh to the goalkeeper union," Fire head coach and director of football Gregg Berhalter said.
Prior to joining MLS, Cohen spent the previous four seasons at Maccabi Haifa where he helped the club win the Israeli Premier League in three consecutive years as well as the 2021-22 Israel Super Cup.
Cohen joins a goalkeeping group that includes starter Chris Brady and Jeffrey Gal. The Fire open the 2026 MLS season on Feb. 21 against the host Houston Dynamo.
