No. After the documents are received, they will be registered with a number, and then processed. After the service is finished, the Central Authority will issue an official Certificate of service and send it back to the Forwarding Party.

But the Forwarding authorities may inquire about the status of the requests once 30 calendar days following the submission have elapsed.
