Nope.
You just have to own them on the qualifying date which i assume is the (working) day before the ex-dividend date. You can sell them straightaway after if you want. In company reports you get statements like a dividend of x pence per share will be paid on 27 July to shareholders registered on 25 May. You can have sold the shares long before 27 July and still get the dividend.
