Yes, that is the rule, according to TDA. If you want to raise, you can either put out the entire raise in one motion or you can verbally announce an amount and that put out the chips in as many motions as you like. In other words, if you're facing an opening bet of 200, and you announce "raise" and then silently put out 200 chips, you are committed to a bet of 400. No more, no less.
