Last year, Narine played 14 matches for Surrey before staying in south London for the The Hundred and representing the Oval Invincibles.
In the Blast, Narine took 14 wickets at an economy of 5.96 per over, and hit 199 runs at a strike rate of 163.11.
"I am thrilled to return to The Kia Oval to play for Surrey in the Vitality Blast again," Narine said.
"Getting knocked out in the quarter-final last year was a real disappointment with the team we had. I know we can do better this year and will do what I can to help get us to Finals Day.
"Between Surrey and the Oval Invincibles, The Kia Oval is genuinely a second home for me in the English summer."
Director of cricket Alec Stewart said: "We saw what Sunil was all about in 2022, so I'm delighted to be bringing a player of his calibre back to Surrey.
"He is a world-class cricketer, capable of producing magic with both the bat and ball. I know members and supporters will be excited by the prospect of his return."
