The 48-year-old will take over from Edy Reja, who left the club at the end of the season despite guiding the Biancocelestiti a fourth-placed finish in Serie A.
Petkovic had taken charge of Sion only last month, overseeing the club's two matches in the Swiss League relegation play-offs, but the Stade Tourbillon outfit did not oppose to the coach's decision to move to Italy.
The Bosnian was at the helm of Young Boys between 2008 and 2011 before taking up a coaching position at Samsunspor, whom he left in January 2012 following a run of disappointing results.
Lazio, who collected 62 points from 38 matches in Serie A, have secured a place in the Europa League play-off round next season.

More Benfica reaction now - this is what midfielder Nemanja Matic told reporters after the Eagles crashed to a heartbreaking 92nd-minute defeat at the Amsterdam ArenA earlier this evening:
"We played a good game. We played very well, we had more possession and played dangerously in Chelsea's box, but we lacked luck in the end. I can only congratulate Chelsea for the victory, but we didn't lack quality. I still think we played well, we were the best team. We had more control and opportunities to score, but had no luck. The best team doesn't always win."

And last but CERTAINLY not least in the Chelsea corner, it's Branislav Ivanovic whose set-piece heroics in stoppage time clinched a second straight European title for the English giants - courtesy of ITV!
"It's a great feeling. This team deserved this, because we have had a very difficult season and a lot of games. In the end, today was a very hard game and Benfica played very well. But we scored from set pieces and work very hard preparing that part of our game. We deserve that trophy."
