Anderson, who has featured in 13 Tests, 49 one-day matches and 29 Twenty20 internationals for the Black Caps, made his presence felt in last year's competition when he bludgeoned 81 from 45 balls on his Somerset bow against Surrey.
He played only four matches last year, contributing 142 runs at a remarkable strike rate of 184 before an injury ended his stay prematurely.
But the 27-year-old -- who once held the record for the fastest one-day-international hundred, since surpassed by South Africa's AB de Villiers -- will be available from the start of this season's campaign, starting against Gloucestershire at Taunton on July 6.
Somerset director of cricket Andy Hurry said: "Corey has a vast amount of experience and is very well known here at Somerset. His all-round ability will have a huge impact on our performances.
