"I am pleased to be returning home to play in the Fiji International which is building the profile of the sport that I love in the country that I love," said Singh who finished in the top-10 last year.
"I enjoyed my time competing in the inaugural tournament, and this year I am motivated to try and win."
The Chief Commercial Officer of the PGA of Australia, Stephen Ayles, says Singh is a hero in Fiji and inspires and interests people in golf, so it was important to get him back for another year.
"We would like to create a lasting legacy of golf in Fiji and by having Vijay participate we are on the path to achieving both of these goals."
The tournament is being held the week after The Presidents Cup in Korea, with world number 15 Matt Kuchar to compete after representing the United States of America.
The playing field has been increased to 132 with the prize purse worth A$1.125m.
