In this paper, we study the almost Bézout property in different commutative ring extensions, namely, in bi-amalgamated algebras and pairs of rings. In Section 2, we deal with almost Bézout domains issued from bi-amalgamations. Our results capitalize well known results on amalgamations and pullbacks as well as generate new original class of rings satisfying this property. Section 3 investigates pairs of rings where all intermediate rings are almost Bézout domains. As an application of our results, we characterize pairs of rings (R, T), where R arises from a (T, M, D) construction to be an almost Bézout domain.
