contents We consider the exact sampling of the first passage of a stable subordinator across a non-increasing regular barrier. First, the sampling is reduced to one from a bivariate distribution parameterized by the index $α$ of the subordinator and a scalar $z$ independent of the barrier. Then three algorithms are devised for different regions of $(α, z)$, using the acceptance-rejection method without numerical inversion or integration. When combined, the algorithms allow the exact sampling of the first passage to be done with complexity $O(1+|\ln(1-α)|)$.
