Mr Johnson will run for re-election in Uxbridge and South Ruislip at the next poll, expected to be held in 2024.
He has been an MP in the west London constituency since 2015, winning it with a majority of 5,034 in 2017 and 7,210 in 2019, by which time he was prime minister.
The constituency has been a Tory seat since its creation in 2010.
The source confirmed Mr Johnson’s decision to stand for a fourth time after the Daily Telegraph first reported that he told his local Conservative Party of his intention.
