The two clubs agreed on a fee for the winger on Wednesday evening, some of which is dependent on appearances.
Tromso's general manager Bjorn Tore Markussen told Norwegian newspaper Nordlys: "We are very happy to have come to this agreement.
"Of course it is a shame to lose a player like Morten, but it is good that Morten can get such a strong wish granted."
Pedersen was today named in the Norwegian national squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Italy and Belarus on 4 and 8 September respectively.
