It depends on what you mean by causing.

There is no href tag but there are some tags with href attributes.

Any tag with an attribute of URL (URI) type _may_ cause a GET message,
but as such, e.g. <a href="...">...</a> does not cause anything. It's
just a link that _may_ be activated, and activation _may_ cause an HTTP
GET message (if it's an http URL and if the resource is not in a cache
etc.).

To see which attributes are of URL type, you can use the handy index of
attributes and check which of them are described as having %URI; value:
