41 CEV national teams entered qualification. The teams were distributed according to their position in the CEV Senior Women's Confederation Rankings as of 1 January 2013 using the serpentine system for their distribution. (Rankings shown in brackets) Pools composition was determined by taking into consideration – as far as possible – the geographical location of the various countries. Teams ranked 1–12 do not compete in the first and second rounds, and automatically qualify for the third round. (Russia and Germany later qualified through European Championship)
