Provided is a slide fastener with a separable bottom end stop having both an automatic stopper and the separable bottom end stop, of which structural components can be used for both left- and right-insertions. In the slide fastener, a stop pawl for the automatic stopper protruding into an element guide passage via a pawl hole is configured to be movable in the lateral direction to an insert pin side and a box pin side. Accordingly, when the insert pin is inserted into the element guide passage through a shoulder opening of a top slider to re-couple separated fastener stringers, the stop pawl can be retreated by the insert pin as being pushed. Accordingly, the insert pin can be smoothly inserted deeply to the top slider with small resistance force. Further, structural components of the slide fastener with the separable bottom end stop can be used for both left- and right-insertions.
