Question: Is it necessary to make an intention for Qadha fast?

Answer: Yes, it is essential to make an intention when observing the Qadha fast. The intention should be made before the start of the fast (i.e. before the break of dawn of that particular day).

It is also necessary to stipulate, for which day you are making Qadha. This may be acheived by making an intention that you are keeping the Qadha of the 'first' or 'last' fast in your obligation.
AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST
