No, there is no mandatory requirement to mention "effective date" in any specific forms or procedures along with the form number and revision. ISO 9001:2015 clause 7.5.2 mentions date as an example, not a mandatory requirement.
Although it is not mandatory it is commonly used in procedures and work instructions, not so common in forms.
