I don't mean in the formula. I mean the result is showing a , (in your example), mine shows a . (because of my region). So the problem is in the result.

  A little bit late 😉, but perhaps useful for others.
  
  Try:
  =IF(ISBLANK([Date]);"";TEXT([Date];"yyyy"))
  
  As ganeshsanap said, formula per language but also per regional setting.

  Jonas_Daragas You have to adjust the formula as per the language of your SharePoint site.
  
  Refer to my above note about using semicolons instead of commas now. Refer documentation link for more information about functions used in calculated column formula.
