The team is led by triple world championship medallist Lauren Boyle and five-time Paralympic gold medallist Sophie Pascoe.
Boyle qualified in the 200m, 400m and 800m freestyle and as a member of the 4x200m freestyle relay, while Pascoe, who won six IPC world titles last year, will contest the 200m individual medley.
Swimming New Zealand high-performance director Luis Villanueva said the swimmers who had earned selection had produced a standard to be competitive in Glasgow.
"Our qualifying standard was challenging but fair as we look to develop swimmers who can compete at the highest levels on the world stage," Villanueva said.
"The team is built around the nucleus of swimmers who went to the world championships last year, and with further hard work in the next 14 weeks, I believe they all have the capability of being contenders for medals in Glasgow."
The second para-swimmer is Te Awamutu teenager Nikita Howarth. Between them, Pascoe and Howarth won six medals at last year's IPC world championships in Canada.
"I am thrilled that Sophie and Nikita have been selected as part of the team for Glasgow 2014," said Jon Shaw, Paralympics NZ head performance coach for para-swimming.
"The Commonwealth Games provides the opportunity for these two inspirational para-swimmers to compete in a fully inclusive swimming event as they build towards the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games."
The team includes eight who swam at London in 2012 at the Olympics and Paralympics - Boyle, Pascoe, Glenn Snyders, Matt Stanley, Tash Hind, Samantha Lucie-Smith, Steven Kent and Dylan Dunlop-Barrett. Added to this are swimmers who competed in last year's world championship - Emma Robinson, Samantha Lee, Mitchell Donaldson and Howarth.
The newcomers are Howick Pakuranga teenager Corey Main, currently on a scholarship at Florida University, Ewan Jackson (Howick Pakuranga) and, competing in the 4x100m freestyle relay, Laura Quilter (North Shore) and Ellen Quirke (Capital, Wellington).
