Those found guilty of aiding the paramilitary could face steep fines and penalties of up to 14 years in prison.
Proposing the order last week, Home Secretary Suella Braverman called Wagner a "threat to global security".
"Wagner's continuing destabilising activities only continue to serve the Kremlin's political goals," Ms Braverman said.
"They are terrorists, plain and simple - and this proscription order makes that clear in UK law."
Under the order, it is a criminal offence to support the group. This includes arranging meetings to further its activities, expressing support for its aims and also displaying Wagner's flag or logo.
Those found guilty of supporting Wagner could be sentenced to up to 14 years in prison, or face a fine.
Wagner will now be added to a list of 78 other proscribed organisations in the UK, including as Hamas and Boko Haram.

Nato is preparing its biggest live joint command exercise since the cold war next year, assembling more than 40,000 troops to practise how the alliance would attempt to repel Russian aggression against one of its members. The Steadfast Defender exercise comes as part of Nato’s rapid push to transform from crisis response to a war-fighting alliance, prompted by the invasion of Ukraine. It will start in spring next year and is expected to involve between 500 and 700 air combat missions, more than 50 ships, and about 41,000 troops, Nato officials said. It is designed to model potential manoeuvres against an enemy modelled on a coalition led by Russia, named Occasus for the purposes of the drill.

A Cuban teenager unwittingly found himself on the front lines of the war in Ukraine after accepting a job offer he received on WhatsApp to do "construction work" for the Russian military, Time magazine reported.
Alex Vegas Díaz, 19, and a friend were taken to a military base, outfitted with weapons, and then sent to fight, Time reported after reviewing social-media footage posted by Vegas Díaz.
In one of the viral videos Time cited, dated August 31, Vegas Díaz could be seen in a Russian hospital recovering from an unspecified illness, saying he was due to be sent back to the front upon recovery.
From his hospital bed, he pleaded to "help get us out of here," Time reported, adding: "What is happening in Ukraine is ugly—to see people with their heads open before you, to see how people are killed, feel the bombs falling next to you."
In another video cited by Time, Vegas Díaz said: "There are dead Cubans, there are missing Cubans, and this is not going to end until the war is over."
