National has released its list ahead of election 2020.
National Party leader Judith Collins made the announcement today.
List candidate Nancy Lu is the highest-ranked non-sitting MP.
President Peter Goodfellow said Ms Lu was a Chartered Accountant "with a background in accounting and business working at major accountancy firms and in the private sector promoting international trades and exports".
"She has worked in New Zealand, Hong Kong and China in various roles including PwC, EY, Fonterra as well as private companies in shipping and retail," he said.
Dale Stephens for Christchurch Central is the second-highest at 29.
High profile candidate Christopher Luxon was placed at 61 - to which Ms Collins said was due to Botany being "one of the safest (National) seats in the country".
Yet-to-be announced Auckland Central and Rangitata candidates are under 66 and 67 respectively as place holders, Ms Collins said.
Auckland Central saw former deputy National leader Nikki Kaye leave the seat after Todd Muller's shock resignation as leader, and former Rangitata MP Andrew Falloon left after a police investigation was launched into allegations he sent inappropriate images to multiple women.
