Hey @Usman Zia
A few tweaks to your syntax should resolve your Unparseable.
Numbers should not have quotes around them - almost always. Remove those.
You're missing commas between the ranges and criteria
=COUNTIFS({ANOTHER SHEET Range 2} , 2022, {ANOTHER SHEET Range 3},1, {ANOTHER SHEET Range 1}, "One person")

@Usman Zia are your numeric values in the remote sheet stored as numbers or as text? That makes a difference in how you list them as criteria in COUNTIFS. If they are numeric values, don't put them in quotes. You also need to list your ranges and criteria in comma separated sets.
Numeric values: use operators, but you still need commas in between the range and criteria.
=COUNTIFS({ANOTHER SHEET Range 2}, = 2022, {ANOTHER SHEET Range 3}, =1, {ANOTHER SHEET Range 1}, "One person")
Text values - don't use an equal sign.
=COUNTIFS({ANOTHER SHEET Range 2}, "2022", {ANOTHER SHEET Range 3}, "1", {ANOTHER SHEET Range 1}, "One person")
