Not if the Apple ID is from the shop that fixed the iPad. The shop needs to remove the Apple ID.


Another option is to have Apple remove the ID, but it takes some time for them to do that. If you are the original owner, contact Apple. Apple can remove the ID  if provided the required paperwork to include the original purchase receipt with the serial number on it.
