Murray has not played since Wimbledon last year due to a hip injury, with surgery in January further delaying a comeback.
But the 31-year-old was included in the main draw at Queen's Club for the tournament that starts on Monday 18 June, and will face Australian Nick Kyrgios in the first round.
There was speculation that Murray was rushing his rehabilitation to return for the grass-court season, but his mother Judy denied those suggestions last week, saying:
The most important thing is he gets fit again for the long term and any top athlete would tell you they would not come back until they felt they could give 100%, especially in a major like Wimbledon.
Murray joins Novak Djokovic in a stellar field at Queen's, but Juan Martin del Potro and Rafa Nadal have both been forced to withdraw due to injury. Brits James Ward and Edward Corrie have been handed wildcards.
