Abstract: Let $nge2$. Let $V{B}_n$ (resp. $V{P}_n$) be the virtual braid group (resp. the pure virtual braid group), and let $V{T}_n$ (resp. $PV{T}_n$) be the virtual twin group (resp. the pure virtual twin group). Let $Pi$ be one of the following quotients: $V{B}_n/Gamm{a}_2(V{P}_n)$ or $V{T}_n/Gamm{a}_2(PV{T}_n)$ where $Gamm{a}_2(H)$ is the commutator subgroup of $H$. In this paper, we show that $Pi$ is a crystallographic group and we characterize the elements of finite order and the conjugacy classes of elements in $Pi$. Furthermore, we realize explicitly some Bieberbach groups and infinite virtually cyclic groups in $Pi$. Finally, we also study other braid-like groups (welded, unrestricted, flat virtual, flat welded and Gauss virtual braid group) module the respective commutator subgroup in each case.
