Not a big deal, but don't cut it too close to departure time.
I'd just stop by the transfer desk on the way to the lounge. You pass right by there and you'll need return BP for lounge access anyway. They'll ask where you're coming from and what bags you have then put a little colored sticker on the back of your passport. Takes about 2 mins.
