The code will be like this. meta tags always goes inside the head element.

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
 <head>
   <meta charset="UTF-8">

The meta tag should go inside the head tag. Also, make sure you don't have multiple pairs of html tags.

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>

<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
</head>

<body>
</body>

</html>
