Tsunekazu Takeda is being investigated into claims that €2 million was paid to secure Tokyo's winning bid.
During a meeting of the national Olympic committee in Tokyo, he announced his decision to step down when his 10th term ends in June.
Takeda has denied any wrongdoing and said he is cooperating with the French prosecutors.
