Most Delphi applications are VCL applications. They do not require a checked exception, because the main message loop has a try/except block catching everything.

It can be good practice to document which exceptions can be explicitly raised by your code though.

I'd use XMLDoc for that (there are various questions on XMLDoc her on SO, and here is some documentation from Embarcadero).

Note however that underlying code can also raise exceptions. Depending on the influence you have on libraries, you can or cannot assure those are always the same. A different thing is the OS: depending on where you run, you can get different exceptions.
