no, just the paperwork. As you already have the experiance, things should be OK if you just get the paperwork as far as i am aware

If you're planning on applying for a general skilled migration visa to Australia and you don't have a recent Australian qualification obtained in Australia (further conditions also apply) then the better view is that you do need work experience after any new offshore qualifications have been completed; in most cases it would be a minimum of 12 months and in many cases 36 months.
